Judgments
TUB only loud noise along the
Western circuit of lata wair the
news of Dear Ducky Holmea' re
turn, painful as It was noisy.
Ducky Is again to be manager of
Eloux City, as tho prints havo already
stated. That displaces Babe Towne, show
ing what a big movement It la, for Babe
is some big:. Holmes has had some- hard
luck runs since letting go of the Sioux
a couple of years ago. His escapade at
Mobile was a complete failure and that
is tho biggest thing he had tackled. The
only reason why fans on this, circuit
do not exult aver Ducky's return la that
he has always been a hard man to get
on with, but at the same time he Is a
kaso ball man, with a Ions career as a
major league player for a background.
He Is a good fighter and will undoubtedly
put Sioux City back on tho ' Western
league map. from which, however, It has
.not been absent any great length of time.
George Huff, who as a scout for tho
Cnbs, unearthed some of the mort famous
players of that famoua team, has quit
Murphy and gone to work for Cleveland
at what Is reported to be tho Mshe.it
(alary ever paid a scout. There can never
be any discounting Huff as a finder and
Setter of new material. Ho is there.
that's all, and when he gets on the t: ail
of a man he wants the man might as well
surrender, as Ruelbach can testify. A
Half dozen different names will not rave
him. The Cubs are trying to get Billy
Hamilton, the old-time player, aa Huff's
successor. He ought to be a good one.
Boston National have first claim on
him, though. A scout Is an Important
poke in the wheel of a base ball machine
these days.
Pa Rourko already has larded three
promising young players for next year in
Pitchers Vavlt and Loudel of Minneapo
lis and Catcher Beckendorf of Cleveland
and he Is, of course, still on the trail.
Laying aside all boost talk, your pa is
down to the brass-tack determination
of landing a team In 1912 that will win the
pennant. Nothing has done mere to in
spire this determination than the two dis
appointments ho has encounte: ed in the
last two seasons. In 1910 he began with
what looked like a winning team, and
some of the men who were first to go to
pieces have since made good In faster
company, Shottcn for one. But all that Is
In the past, eyes and hopes now center on
the future.
Murray's fall down In the world's
series proves hla downfall in New
York, for he Is to go to Boston for Mike
Donlin, with a few thousand thrown
in by McGraw. At least, that is the report.
Home thpre be who still adhere to the
notion that Muggsy never really let go
of Handsome Mike, except to help out
Boston and find whether or not the
thesplan could come back. Seeing he can,
McGraw bags him. It will seem like old
times to have this rantankerous Giant out
in the garden again. Now, let the fans
KO to speculating on whether the Giants
would have beat the Athletics had they
had Mike. It will make a good winter
topic.
The case of George Stovall la a queer
one. He goes In and managea Cleveland
and the team lands higher than It has
for years, but Harry Livls having al
ready been engaged to run the team,
tltoval limes his Job. Then It appears
three teams seek him, now he Is out and
apparently unsought by any. Bomers of
Cleveland, anxious to land him a good
berth, la trying to get waivers on him
to make him manager of Toledo, whose
control has panned from Armour to Bom
ers. This la a case of a man being pena
lised for making good.
Connie Mack haa done a handsome thing
in making Danny Murphy captain of the
Athletics to succeed Harry Davla. Danny
lias been a grand old spoke In that grand
,ld wheel t 'T many years, having starred
In tho Infield as well as the out and he
is there yet. as Ma work In the recent
world's series proved. He can lead the
way and that la what la wanted.
The veneral Walter Camp used to in
dulge the hallucination that no western
foot ball team could ever defeat an east
erner. Since the recent Chicago-Cornell
and Michigan-Pennsylvania games, hi.
doubtless Is not sj Indulgent. 1'robably
the west might triumph much more If
given the opportun tv.
The rulo of reducing the number of
players a team may carry la nothing new
and If It la nut enforced any better than
similar rules have been, It might us well
have been omitted.
Another old time favorite, Jake Btafcl
return next year aa manager of Bos
ton and will doubtless g?t a glad hand
from the fans everywhere.
Some good ship la bringing another
cargo of Italian fleah over here to wres
tle Uotch. Better turn It over to UIH
Jlokuf first.
Nebraska la not much on foot ball this
year, only the best in the va'ley, that's
11.

High
School Lads
Ready for the Big
Cross-Country Run
The cross-country squad of the high
school will put In Its final practice this
week for Its annual run with the Council
Bluffs team, which will be held as a
preliminary stunt to the game between the
local high school warriors and the Wen
dell Phllilpa High school eleven of Chi
cago. Omaha's chances have been greatly
strengthened this week by the return of
two star runners to the squad. Halleck
Rouse, last year's atar quarter mller and
relay runner, haa Joined the squad end la
sure to show up well. Rouse recently re
turned from the wilds of Canada, where
ho haa been roughing It, and Is In excel
lent condition for running. On account
of the monthly attendance eligibility rules.
Rouse waa not allowed to go out for foot
ball thla year, as he had not been en
rolled in echool long enough this semes
ter. Charles Robel, who pulled off fourth
place In the run last year, haa also Joined
the squad, and Is showing up well In the
semi-weekly practice runs. Flnley Jen
kins and Gilbert Kennedy, both members
of last year's team, are also showing up
strong In practice and are likely candi
dates for the team this year. Lynn Sack
ett, captain of the squad, Is one of the
steadiest distance runners the school has
ever produced.
The run will start and end In full view
of ths crowd at Ruurke park and will be
over the same course as that of last year.
The route goes from Rourke park, zlg
sags down to the west entrance of River
vlow park, and then returns to the park.
Tho distance thus covered Is about two
and one-half miles. The run will start at
2:3d, so that It will be finished before the
foot ball game starts at 3 o'clock.
Each school will enter five runners and
points will be awarded for the first five
men who get places.

HIGH SCHOOL BOYS LIGHTER
Wendell Fhillipi Team Outweighs
Them Three Founds to a Man.
TO MEET HERE TUKKEY DAY
Comparison of the Two Teams la
Made by the Doylit Uonman
and Hector Hack in the
Game. .
When the Omaha High school eleven
and the husky Wendell Phllilpa High
school team of Chicago clash at Rourke
park Thanksgiving afternoon -tho local
warriors will be outweighed fully six
pounds to the man.
The average weight of the Omaha
eleven la 1M pounds and that of Wendell
Phillips 110. The lines of the two teams
are about evenly matched, although the
Windy City lads have some three pounds
advantage. Wendell Phllilpa sums up an
average of 153 In the back field, whllo
the purple and white has but 143 pounds.
Derplte tho fact that Omaha la out
weighed ten pounds In their back field
Coach Burnett will rely on the npcedlnoss
of Rector at fullback, Carlson, left half,
and Bowman, right half, to overcome this
advantage. s
This trio Is cupable of pulling off sev
eraf baffling trick pluya and forward
passes which Burnett has "Ttept up' his
sleeve all season In preparation for this
game. Omaha will rely largely on the
open style of foot bull, and the spectators
need not expect a rough and tumble af
fair. Cummlngs at quarter and Alberts, left
guard, are the stars of'the Windy City
team, both having already been picked
for the All-Cook County High school
eleven for'the lull season. Alberts weighs
112 and la playing his second year on the
team.
Five of the Wendell Phillips eleven that
will play hers Thanksgiving Wore on the
team last year, Sherman, left end; Pethy
brldge, left tackle; Alberts, left guaid;
Keenan, center, and Stern, right half.
Keenan played left guard last year. Sher
man is touted as a star open-field run

ward passes.

From Standpoint of Ganira Won

fat Season, bat Games Metier
Than Scores Indtrntr.
The t'nlverslty of Omah" lasting
foot ball game at Hsstlngs on Thanks
giving day la arousing a great deal of
Interest. It will really be the only game
of the season which will give other
schools In the Nebraska association a
chance to draw a line on the strength
of the local eleven.
Hastings this year has raptured sec
ond place In the race for the champion
ship of Nebraska. In meeting thla aggre
gation Omaha will have a rhnne to show
whether or not It Is plnylng foot ball
of university caliber.
From the standpoint of games won the
Gate City lads have not had a very suc
cessful year, but they have been play
ing a much better gume than the scores
Indicate. They have been handicapped all
season, and have had enough discourage
ments to cause the average team to dis
band. I ' Players Show I n W ell.
I Parish, star quarterback, will be bat' of
the game. His place Is being taken by
Dow, who Is showing mighty good gen
eralship and speed In getting orf th
plays. Larsen Is taking Dow's position
at left half and is hitting the line like
a demon. He Is fast on his feet and
shows much ability In skirting the ends
and tackling, and aa a defensive player
la adding a great deal of strength to ths
team.
If' Omaha wins, or holds Holsts's pro
teges to a low score they will be entitled
to be looked upon as one of ths best
teams In the state, outside of Crelghton
and the University of Nebraska. Last
year In basket ball Cotner came her
claiming the championship, and expected
to win by a large score. Omaha upset all
dope by winning, and they ballev that
unless Hastings plays stellar ball dur
ing the entire game that they too are
In for a surprise.
Liberal Donations
For Olympic Games
NEW YORK, Nov. 26.-That matters In
relation to the American Olympic team

fast taking shape Is attested by the
liberal donstlons to further the world's
greatest athletes. Closely following this
Is the Information to th effect that th
American committee has cabled for reser
vations for 100 men In the hotels of
Hlorkholm and vicinity.
This vast aggregation of the muscle
and brawn of the United States shows
an Increase In numbers over th great
est team ever sent abroad, that of 11MA,
by over thirty, as seventy men com
prised the u,u ud which corralled the
points and th trophies at that time In
England.
In order to further Increase American
athletic Interest It has been almost defi
nitely decided upon to have the scenes
of the "Iryouts" for positions on the

NEW YORK, Nov. K.-Oii of the most
radical change In years In fencing rules

according to the announcement mad by
the Amateur Fencers' league of America,
which outlined Its plans, scope, additions
in membership and championship dute.
For the first time In the history of the
organisation it haa been voted to fix a
limit to the number of points that may
be scored In a folia competition. Instead
of permitting a bout to go four minutes
as heretofore, the match will end as soon
as one swordsman has earned four
touches. The fencers shall change posi
tions on the strip after three louche, or
after two minutes In can threo louche
have not been mude In that time.
Forty -two open tournaments with folia,
subers and dueling swords will be con
ducted by the leugue In seven different
cities this season. The majority will take
place at Chicago, where sixteen competi
tions are dated, thirteen of them under
the auspices of the Illinois Athletic club.

The rport that Wesleyan university majr .

athletlo authorities of the local Insrltu-

here have considered taking ths Initiative .
In this direction.
The attitude assumed by ..esleyan haj

of the supporters of athletics at Hosting

"Spies were sent here befor th gams

"Wesleysn's two touchdowns wer both ,
nuke, th first th result of a deflected
punt on Hastings' thirty-yard line and
th second an interrupted pass In the last
few minutes of play, Th first would
hav been Impoislbl If it had not been
for a glaring foul on Marvel of Hastings,
with ths field Judge not mors than five'
yards away. This foul was so gross that
outsiders on the side lines called to ths
field Judge for a penalty. At ths end of
th third qusrter Hastings had th ball
on Wesleysn's one yard line, third down.
When the ball was taken to the other end
of the field It was given to Wesleysn.
W again refer to th newspaper accounts
for proof of this.
"Hastings outplayed Wesleyan and
should have won. They made on touch
down and carried th ball twlcs to Wes
leysn's one-yard line, wher It was' once
unjustly taken away from them. Wes
leyan could not hav scored excepting on' '
